Better Drops

I hate these kind of topics. Oh and please don't bump this anymore, it's old.

One night i was botting at snakemen for 10~12 hours, it got me 2 dbs, +1 earrings,+1 necky, elite coro, 4 mets,Super 1s Hammer & 2 +1 Warrior armors.

The following nights i started the bot at the same time, but the result was just crap.
(Yay...like 2 mets and a +1 warrior helm each night...).


Its all about luck.

drops are RANDOM!!!

I believe that when a character is created, an amount of luck is present.

Second Thing: I have my 100 trojan there for protection, ksing etc. Third Thing: I am defiantly getting better drops when the server time is late at night. Not for me, but for the location of the server, which is unfortunately at 5AM for me :eek:. Evidence: I hunted in the morning getting 5k kills (Server time morning) and got one met and a +1 backsword I then went back at the servers night time, this time i killed 3.5k and got 11 mets, elite warrior armour, elite 1 soc wand and a DB. The same happened the day after, in the morning i got 2k kills, and got NOTHING. I went back at night, killed 500 before i went to bed and got a super tao robe.. I then tried it without my trojan there and got nothing :cry: (Both night and day) I tried it at snakemen and got nothing again.. I hope this helps you a little, im going to try it again tonight, and ill post exactly what i get.

Class thing maybe. Timezone means nothing. The Reason you are getting more late at night is because there are less people online and therefore less chance of someone else killing a monster and getting a good item.

well i've been reading this post since the beguining and there goes all my thoghts. they can be stupid and contraditory but no 1 is perfect :D

Ok they're not BSing. Honestly why would TQ make a game and decide, hmm at 11 o'clock p.m. we're going to drop one dragonball and at all other times none. Umm? It's all random. From what I've noticed the longer it takes you to get more kills the better drops you get per kills. Say if you take a lvl 100 trojan vs. a lvl 100 archer. They both kill five thousand but the trojan will get better drops during that time because it took longer for each kill. This is my theory and I've yet to see it disproved. Sure occasionally the archer will get better drops, but it's all a randomly generated logarithm. Also the more time that lapses between each kill will give more of an oppurtunity for an elite, super or DB to appear. I think time is a huge factor, but not when, but how long.

really i agree with that i got 5 DBs until today and... only 1 of then was when i was "fast killing" with my archer the outher 4 was with single hits and not scarter or outher tecniques that hit multiple targuets maybe the time and the skill hiting multiple targuets and of course some luck can be important factors

There are a certian amount of things to be dropped everyday, but if no one gets them, then are more likely dropped when the day is almost over

ya good theory but... the servers dont do maintenamce at the end of each day so i dont believe its possible at the end of the day... maybe before maitnance ?

and its not luck, its all code

totally agreed i dont believe that that kind of luck exist in a computer game

I agree completely it is based on Luck. But that luck is the source of things you do on the game, not randomness.

I make your words mine mindxspike if let me do it ;) ( i know im repeating myself but well i like tiping and quoting :D )

My warrior had crappy equipment so maybe the equipment has the luck, like if I was wearing all normal equipment maybe my luck is higher than if it was full super equipment?

hum... maybe. trully i dont believe in that.
Of course that if thats true it should be good cus the chars with crap equipment are the ones that need more good drops but HEY any 1 can have crap equipment

have you thinked of how many diferent chars exist in each server ? and btw i think that the "presect luck" changing when you mine/hunt in the same place its impossible to exist cus there are tons of players at the time and i dont believe a computer ( for more powerfull it can be ) can manage tons of chars killing, given them drops, making a randon alguritm to lvl the mets and DBs used, open the socks with another algoritm junping with all the hunters and changing the VPs value of a char can make that atribute being changed for those tons of players at the same time plus all the calculatoins it needs to make the atack values of each weapon but well its just a thought mine

and just to finish the post sry for my bad english :rolleyes:

Yesterday i was hunting at Hugesnakes at night in server time. I got 16 mets.
Then today i was hunting there too and i got 4 mets in 2 hunting period.
So ill see what will happent tomorrow
:D

lol, its definately wierd, but im sure its just a cowincidence

it al refer to albert einstein theory,
his topic is pinned

he says that less ppl in map gives beter drops

i dont think there is alot of ppl playing co at 5hA.M.

yea I deffinitely agree that the less people in your server playing the more chances that you will get something good. It just make logical sence that way because if server randomly send out packets for met,db,+1, and quality stuff then the less player killing monster and making them drop items will allow you to have more chance of receiving one of the packets that hold the good stuff. I also heard somewhere (I think from mr.teenie) that conquer give a player more luck as he/she stay online longer of course that mean so dcing, so like a player who have stay online for 24 hours straight would have a better chance at good drops than someone who just logged on. This makes sense to me because it's like the 2rb lucky time due to the time/luck storing factor because I think that lucky time just speed up the rate that a player's luck is being stored like instead of staying online for 5 hours, the luckytime person on have to store 10 minutes of luckytime (this is of course a total random guess not saying that these are facts in anywayz). So now like i would log my hunter on since friday server maintenance and keep him online until like sunday afternoon and then hunt my butt off XD.

its easy , like allready many said, less ppl on server = more chance to get good items !

Why did u guys bump this... If u cant look at the date of the last post, then leave the forums please -.-
